Abstract

Methods for separating pericarp tissue from surrounding tissues in grain are provided. Included are methods for isolation of high-purity pericarp DNA from a grain plant that reflects the genotype of the maternal parent of the grain plant, such that the isolated DNA may be used in a PCR-based genotyping assay.
